In this episode, you will learn about chronic kidney disease and how to address the Kidneydemic with Renology.

About My Guest:

My guest for this episode is Dr. Robin Rose.  Robin Rose, MD began a journey into holistic healing in her teens in the mid-sixties beginning with nutrition and botanical medicine and yoga and meditation.  Over the years her journey included time living in India and working with both village doctors and healers.  She became a health food chef and inspired many to change their habits.  Before long she was enrolled in an RN program and then a family nurse practitioner program.  Aware that the education wasn’t complete, she attended University of Arizona College of Medicine; while also serving as a medical student board member for the American Holistic Medical Association.  During residency, she continued learning Chinese medicine, acupuncture, osteopathy, energy medicine, and herbal medicine.  Her main practice was in Ashland, Oregon where she served a community eager to integrate many healing modalities into the conventional setting, including innovative care in the hospital.  In the past decade after her own alarming health challenges with kidney cancer and advanced kidney disease, she became agile in regenerative medical approaches to kidney care.  She created a new specialty called Renology; a new concept of "Kidney Success" not Kidney Failure.  When she discovered peptides and especially bioregulator peptides, she led the brigade to new heights of seeing success in a field that had not embraced this kind of care.  Her recent book "Renology Peptides" is a nearly 800 page text on how to achieve this renewal of health.  Her current intention is to raise awareness of the role of kidney in wellbeing and how we can all celebrate this success. 

Key Takeaways:

• What is the purpose of the kidneys?
• What symptoms are observed in chronic kidney disease?
• Is kidney disease a catabolic process?
• Is kidney disease genetic or epigenetic?
• What are the stages of kidney disease?
• What are the best tests and lab markers?
• What might elevations or phosphorous or potassium suggest?
• What is the kidney-gut axis?
• What is the role of endothelial health in kidney disease?
• What role do the mitochondria play? 
• How do infections and environmental toxicants contribute to kidney disease?
• What is the role of oxalates in kidney health?
• How might carbon dioxide guide treatment?
• Does cellular senescence play a role?
• What is the connection between the kidneys and the teeth?
• How do the limbic system and mental/emotional health impact the kidneys?
• What treatment intervention warrant exploration?
• Where do dialysis and transplantation come into the discussion?
• What role might peptides and peptide bioregulators play?

In this episode, you will learn about the role of Actinobacteria and Endotoxins in CIRS.

About My Guest:

My guest for this episode is Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker.  Ritchie Shoemaker, MD is a recognized leader in patient care, research, and an education pioneer in the field of biotoxin related illness.  While illness acquired following exposure to the interior environment of water-damaged buildings (WDB) comprises the bulk of Dr. Shoemaker’s daily practice, other illnesses caused by exposure to biologically-produced toxins are quite similar in their “final common pathway.”  What this means is that while the illness might begin acutely with exposure to fungi, spirochetes, apicomplexans, dinoflagellates and cyanobacteria, for example, in its chronic form, each of these illnesses has similar symptoms, lab findings, and Visual Contrast Sensitivity (VCS) findings.  Taken together the inflammatory illness from each of these diverse sources is known as  Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome.

Key Takeaways:

• Is CIRS generally caused by a single trigger or multiple triggers?
• What HLA-DR types may be susceptible to Actinobacteria or endotoxins?
• How does one determine when MARCoNS are making polycyclic ethers?
• What is the latest on biotoxin illness testing through HumanBiomics?
• Is it the Actinobacteria or a toxin produced by the bacteria that leads to illness?
• Is it best to start by testing the environment or by testing the person?
• Are some Actinobacteria a healthy part of our microbiome?
• What criteria are used to evaluate Actinobacteria testing?
• Is the solution to Actinobacteria a traditional remediation?
• How do people acquire skin Actinobacteria?
• How are skin Actinobacteria reduced over time?
• Are Actinobacteria in the sinuses a factor?
• How are Actinobacteria in the oral cavity addressed?
• How do endotoxins enter the body?
• Can endotoxin production be from endogenous bacteria?
• What is the best way to establish CIRS causation?
• What is the role of beta glucans in CIRS?
